We see the hope and potential in every young person

Benin, West Africa

Benin is located in French speaking West Africa, and Juenesse pour Christ is very active in this tiny country.

Medical Personnel:

This is an opportunity for anyone with a medical background to assist Youth for Christ Benin, in a medical/veterinarian outreach to an unreached people group in a remote area of the country. Doctors, opticians, ophthalmologists, dentists, nurses, paramedics, medical students and veterinarians have an opportunity to assist Benoinise medical practitioners in bringing much needed medical relief to a country that has a doctor density of only .06/1000 people. Veterinarians have an opportunity to assist Benoinise vets help villagers care for their animals.

Young People:

There are a limited number of spots for young people to assist in a Summer Camp/VBS that will run concurrently with the Medical Outreach. You will work closely with other Benoinise students and YFC volunteers in providing a week long experience for children from all around Benin.

Brief Description:

YFC Benin runs a summer camp, medical outreach program and an evangelistic outreach during the summer. Our team will be in Benin the last two weeks of July and help in the camp or Agriculture school any way we can. This is an opportunity to practice servanthood as plans can change hourly if not daily.

Cost:

The in country costs for each team member will be $2500 plus airfare. The cost of airfare will depend on how soon you register and we will look for the most economical way of getting to Benin. Participants should expect to raise $2500 for airfare but that may be reduced a few hundred depending on timing.
